Changing the service account password

You may have a requirement to change the password for account on a regular bases for security purposes. Changing the password for the service account can be done using a cmdlet. In addition you have the option of also re-synchronizing the agents with the new password.

In this example, the first command secures the password to the $secpasswd variable. The second command applies the new password to the service account.

In this example, the password is resynchronized on the agents associated with the service account.

Changing the SQL account password

As with changing the password for the service account, you can change both the account and password used by the Security Explorer Access Explorer server to communicate with the SQL Server database.

In this example, a service account is added to the AMER domain with the password stored in the $secpasswd variable.

Using cmdlets to remove Access Explorer objects

There are a number of cmdlets that allow you to remove objects, such as service account, domains and managed computers, from Access Explorer.

Topics:

Removing a managed computer

To remove a managed computer that is no longer required, use the Remove-AEManagedComputer cmdlet. First all agents installed on the computer are removed, and then the computer is removed from Access Explorer. When unregistered, any agent instances associated with the managed computer are removed. If the computer does not have any agent instances, the Security Explorer Access Explorer agent software is removed.

In this example, the computer with the Id 6e1f518f-cc9a-4915-86e5-894f47767556 is removed as a managed computer.
